I'm creating a website login windown, and the background is an image, but the image always get cut in half and go up.
this is the code I'm using:
.loginbody {
background: url(img/LoginBackground3.jfif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
background-position: center;
font-family: sans-ser``if;
}
this is what it lookslike
It's hard to tell without seeing your HTML as well, but your containing element probably isn't the full height of the viewport.
If you want to make a fullscreen background image that always fills the viewport, apply your CSS to the html element of your page:
html {
background: url(img/LoginBackground3.jfif) no-repeat center center fixed;
background-size: cover;
}
Alternatively you could set the viewport height on your loginbody element to 100vh, making it the full height of the viewport:
.loginbody {
background: url(img/LoginBackground3.jfif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
background-position: center;
font-family: sans-serif;
height:100vh;
}
I'm building a website from CSS and HTML. I'm up to the point of adding a background image to my website. The trouble is, the image isn't showing up as the website's background.
My CSS code:
.bg {
background: url('https://ak9.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/12047219/thumb/10.jpg?i10c=img.resize(height:160)');
height: 50%;
/* Center and scale the image nicely */
background-position: center;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-size: cover;
}
<div class="bg"></div>
Just ask me if you need any more code from my website.
Edit: This is not a clone, I've tried every other solution that I've come across on here, and nothing works.
This works fine if you use fixed height:
In the below case I have used 100px;
.bg {
background: url('https://ak9.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/12047219/thumb/10.jpg?i10c=img.resize(height:160)');
height: 100px;
/* Center and scale the image nicely */
background-position: center;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-size: cover;
}
<div class="bg">
</div>
But if you want it to be 100% of the screen you can always go with 100vh
.bg {
background: url('https://ak9.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/12047219/thumb/10.jpg?i10c=img.resize(height:160)');
height: 100vh;
/* Center and scale the image nicely */
background-position: center;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-size: cover;
}
<div class="bg">
</div>

Hope this was helpful for you.
The background image for a page can be set like this:
body {
background-image: url("paper.gif");
}
so maybe you can change your code become :
.bg {
background-image: url('https://ak9.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/12047219/thumb/10.jpg?i10c=img.resize(height:160)');
height: 100px;
/* Center and scale the image nicely */
background-position: center;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-size: cover;
}
If you want to add background image to whole HTML Page then use body tag.
body {
background-image: url("https://ak9.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/12047219/thumb/10.jpg");
}
and if you want to add background to specific class then use this
.bg {
background-image: url('https://ak9.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/12047219/thumb/10.jpg');
}
in that adjust your height accordingly. if you want to add to full class then use
height:100% else adjust it with your own condition.
The image that the OP refers to is a resized version of the original. This solution uses the original image along with CSS that uses a height of 100vh (as recommended by #weBBer) and auto for the width. The background position remains with a center value. It seems needless to repeat the image so the CSS uses no-repeat. This works with Google Chrome (version 49).
.bg {
background-image: url(https://ak9.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/12047219/thumb/10.jpg);
width:auto;
height:100vh;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size:cover;
}
<div class="bg"></div>
The result is a centered image that fills the page due to background-size property being set to cover as well as the height property set to 100vh, i.e. 100% of the view port height; see more about this and other measurements here.
If you only wanted to fill the portion within the dimensions of the DIV then you could alter the CSS and replace background-size property with object-fit, as follows:
.bg {
background-image: url(https://ak9.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/12047219/thumb/10.jpg);
height:480px;
margin-left:auto;width:100%;margin-right:auto;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
object-fit:cover;
}
<div class="bg"></div>
I am doing a padding for my body tag like this because I am using a nav bar fixed top. I want the nav bar to always stay on top.
body {
padding-top: 70px;
}
Now I want to add a background image to the body and want it to cover the entire screen. So I do this.
body {
background: url(background.jpg);
background-size: cover;
}
But the problem is that the nav bar covers parts of the image, the 70px padding is not working on the background image. Please help fix this.
Position the background 70px down using the offsets available in background-position
Background-Position # MDN
body {
background-image: url(http://www.fillmurray.com/g/200/300);
background-position: top 70px center;
background-size: cover;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
By default, background does cover the padding, yes.
So one possible solution would be to use background-origin to tell the browser the background should start in the upper left of the content, rather than the padding area.
html {background:white; height:100%}
body {
box-sizing:border-box; min-height:100%;
padding-top:70px;
background: url(http://www.fillmurray.com/g/200/300);
background-origin: content-box;
background-size: cover;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
This one would have the advantage of being dynamic; i.e. you wouldn't need to change its value if changed the value of the padding.
I'm trying to make a GIF fit my whole screen, but so far its just a small square that is on my screen while the rest is white. However, I want it to take up all the space.
Any ideas?
if it's background, use background-size: cover;
body{
background-image: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/kx8MT.gif');
background-size: cover;
height: 100vh;
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
IMG Method
If you want the image to be a stand alone element, use this CSS:
#selector {
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
With this HTML:
<img src='folder/image.gif' id='selector'/>
Fiddle
Please note that the img tag would have to be inside the body tag ONLY. If it were inside anything else, it may not fill the entire screen based on the other elements properties. This method will also not work if the page is taller than the image. It will leave white space. This is where the background method comes in
Background Image Method
If you want it to be the background image of you page, you can use this CSS:
body {
background-image:url('folder/image.gif');
background-size:100%;
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-attachment: fixed;
height:100%;
width:100%;
}
Fiddle
Or the shorthand version:
body {
background:url('folder/image.gif') repeat-y 100% 100% fixed;
height:100%;
width:100%;
}
Fiddle
You can set up a background with your GIF file and set the body this way:
body{
background-image:url('http://www.example.com/yourfile.gif');
background-position: center;
background-size: cover;
}
Change background image URL with your GIF. With background-position: center you can put the image to the center and with background-size: cover you set the picture to fit all the screen. You can also set background-size: contain if you want to fit the picture at 100% of the screen but without leaving any part of the picture without showing.
Here's more info about the property:

Hope it helps :)
if you're happy using it as a background image and CSS3 then background-size: cover; would do the trick
This should do what you're looking for.
CSS:
html, body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
.gif-container {
background: url("image.gif") center;
background-size: cover;
height: 100%;
}
HTML:
<div class="gif-container"></div>
In your CSS Style tag put this:
body {
background: url('yourgif.gif') no-repeat center center fixed;
background-size: cover;
}
Also make sure that it's parent size is 100%
I have
body {
background: url(images/background.svg);
}
The desired effect is that this background image will have width equal to that of the page, height changing to maintain the proportion. e.g. if the original image happens to be 100*200 (any units) and the body is 600px wide, the background image should end up being 1200px high. The height should change automatically if the window is resized. Is this possible?
At the moment, Firefox looks like it's making the height fit and then adjusting the width. Is this perhaps because the height is the longest dimension and it's trying to avoid cropping? I want to crop vertically, then scroll: no horizontal repeat.
Also, Chrome is placing the image in the centre, no repeat, even when background-repeat:repeat is given explicitly, which is the default anyway.
There is a CSS3 property for this, namely background-size (compatibility check). While one can set length values, it's usually used with the special values contain and cover. In your specific case, you should use cover:
body {
background-image: url(images/background.svg);
background-size: cover; /* <------ */
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center center; /* optional, center the image */
}
Eggsplanation for contain and cover
Sorry for the bad pun, but I'm going to use the picture of the day by Biswarup Ganguly for demonstration. Lets say that this is your screen, and the gray area is outside of your visible screen. For demonstration, I'm going to assume a 16x9 ratio.
We want to use the aforementioned picture of the day as a background. However, we cropped the image to 4x3 for some reason. We could set the background-size property to some fixed length, but we will focus on contain and cover. Note that I also assume that we didn't mangle the width and/or height of body.
contain
contain
Scale the image, while preserving its intrinsic aspect ratio (if any), to the largest size such that both its width and its height can fit inside the background positioning area.
This makes sure that the background image is always completely contained in the background positioning area, however, there could be some empty space filled with your background-color in this case:
cover
cover
Scale the image, while preserving its intrinsic aspect ratio (if any), to the smallest size such that both its width and its height can completely cover the background positioning area.
This makes sure that the background image is covering everything. There will be no visible background-color, however depending on the screen's ratio a great part of your image could be cut off:
Demonstration with actual code
div > div {
background-image: url(http://i.stack.imgur.com/r5CAq.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center center;
background-color: #ccc;
border: 1px solid;
width: 20em;
height: 10em;
}
div.contain {
background-size: contain;
}
div.cover {
background-size: cover;
}

Based on tips from https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/CSS/background-size I end up with the following recipe that worked for me
body {
overflow-y: hidden ! important;
overflow-x: hidden ! important;
background-color: #f8f8f8;
background-image: url('index.png');
/*background-size: cover;*/
background-size: contain;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: right;
}
Background image is not Set Perfect then his css is problem create so his css file change to below code
html {
background-image: url("example.png");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 0% 0%;
background-size: 100% 100%;
}
%; background-size: 100% 100%;"
I'm not sure what you're looking for exactly, but you really should check out these excellent blog posts written by Chris Coyier from CSS-Tricks:
http://css-tricks.com/how-to-resizeable-background-image/
http://css-tricks.com/perfect-full-page-background-image/
Read the descriptions for each of the articles and see if they're what you're looking for.
The first answers the following question:
Is there a way to make a background image resizeable? As in, fill the background of a web page edge-to-edge with an image, no matter the size of the browser window. Also, have it resize larger or smaller as the browser window changes. Also, make sure it retains its ratio (doesn't stretch weird). Also, doesn't cause scrollbars, just cuts off vertically if it needs to. Also, comes in on the page as an inline tag.
The second post's goal is to get the following, a "background image on a website that covers the entire browser window at all times. "
Hope this helps.
Just add this one line:
.your-class {
height: 100vh;
}
vh is viewport height.
This will automatically scale to fit the device' browser window.
Check more here: Make div 100% height of browser window
body{
background-image: url(../url/imageName.jpg);
background-attachment: fixed;
background-size: auto 100%;
background-position: center;
}
Try this,
element.style {
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) url("img/shopping_bgImg.jpg") no-repeat scroll center center / cover;
}
I had the same issue, unable to resize the image when adjusting browser dimensions.
Bad Code:
html {
background-color: white;
background-image: url("example.png");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: scroll;
background-position: 0% 0%;
}
Good Code:
html {
background-color: white;
background-image: url("example.png");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: scroll;
background-position: 0% 0%;
background-size: contain;
}
The key here is the addition of this element -> background-size: contain;
Here's what worked for me:
background-size: auto 100%;
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
background: url("../img/hero-bg.jpg") top center;
background-size: cover;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 0% 0%;
background-size: 100% 100%;
if you set min-height, for example:
min-height: 100vh;
You can use the below code to fit your background easily
body {
background: url(images/background.svg);
min-height: 100vh;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}
Setting background size does not help, the following solution worked for me:
.class {
background-image: url(blablabla.jpg);
/* Add this */
height: auto;
}
It basically crops the image and makes it fit in, background-size: contain/cover still didn't make it fit.
